Peonies are the quintessential cottage garden plant. They have fragrant blooms that open as the spring turns to summer. White Towers Peony has a fully double, pure white bloom that would make an amazing addition to any garden. Paeonia lactiflora is a herbaceous variety that sends out frilly, reddish shoots early in the spring and has foliage of fiery orange and red in the fall before dying back for the winter. The blooms are long lasting in a vase, filling a room with its distinctive scent with one stem.

Peonies are tolerant of a wide range of temperatures and will still put on a good show even if there are late frosts. The hardiness range is from zone 3-8. Deer and rabbit resistant. Few diseases or pests are troublesome for Peony. Full sun all day is perfect for Peonies grown in the lower hardiness zones. Peonies grown in the warmer zones  will need afternoon shade to perform their best.

White Towers Peony Care

Paeonia lactiflora likes being planted  in slightly acidic, 6.5pH, soil but will tolerate neutral and even slightly alkaline positions. Peonies resent being moved once they have established. Make sure not to  plant the eye bud more than 1 inch below the soil. If planted deeper, the plant will have a hard time blooming. Fertilizing is only needed once a year. A slow release, balanced fertilizer should be applied after blooming. Well drained soil is very important so that the roots don’t rot during the winter.

Regular deadheading of the blooms will prolong the season. Leaving the last few blooms to ripen into seed heads will add to the fall interest of this plant. Pruning is not needed, since this plant is a herbaceous perennial that dies back to the ground in winter. Mulching with leaves in the fall will ensure that Peonies grown in the coldest  zones stay insulated from snow and ice,

White Towers Peony Spacing 

The spacing of White Towers Peony is 36-40 inches on center. This allows for full extension of the foliage in spring, while providing proper air circulation to reduce danger of diseases and pests. Mass plantings of one or 2 colors of Peony are stunning both visually and scentually.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
